Front Changes

Helldivers are one step closer to completing Operation Swift Disassembly (Phase IV) with the liberation of Maia. All Helldivers are diverting to Tibit.

We have failed the Defence Campaign on Estanu, cutting off access to Fori Prime. It is a small price to pay during Operation Swift Disassembly. The fascist Terminids have established a foot hold on Estanu as a result.

You know? Thanks. For being a decent human about it. I genuinely appreciate the content and intent of your reply, especially since it sheds some light on how this sequel is an improvement. Thank you. ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿฝ

I can understand your viewpoint too. If you're coming into it looking for the community to band together to accomplish tasks together, then it is too obfuscated and vague to really know what your impact is, and maybe that's part of the point of the whole destruction of the worth of a soldier that the game inherits from its Starship Troopers influence (or at least is conveniently explained away by).

At the same time if you look at the galactic war as a fun way to occasionally attach some meta roleplaying, rotate the biomes of planets around and give the community some free medals, then it's a nice way to do it. And it allows them to tack on content updates in a contextualized way within the game lore like they have been with the flying enemies, new stratagems, etc.
